RE: What was the coolest thing you saw in The woods this year
Near sunset on the 3rd day of our Elk hunt out West driving down the gravel road from coming down a ridge elevation about 8,000 ft. we saw at about 1/2 mile away what looked like 2 trees that were malformed brushy between. We stopped and glassed and found it was a HUGE bull Elk we could hardly believe it. We couldn't see the antlers at first, so we move 100 feet down the road and glassed again. It was a monster 7X7 that had made it through the season looking over the valley and ridges. No doubt he was thinking about "what a great time I had this year again with ALL those cows!" Something like that.
Anyway, he was an unforgetable picture that just added to our hole experience this year.
